it sounds just like a JL w7. the only thing that i can see is the hole (obviously) and the fact that it has the scuff marks on the surround. i'll pass on the 80 shipped...
it DOES have a second cone underneat the flat cone on the w7's, so i cant see it being too hindering. except if you were going to run it balls to the wall for the rest of its life it may crack apart more? i'm not sure...
